Major Updates

New in version 2.0

Feature 1

Magnetostatic FEA in Design Studio

The full Magnetostatic FEA engine is now available directly inside Design Studio — mirroring the solver from the main interface. This marks the beginning of a transition to an entirely new design workflow where simulation and geometry live side by side.

Feature 2

3D STEP-file geometry import for custom motor topologies

Import custom motor geometries from standard STEP files and use them as the basis for your simulation domain.

Feature 3

PCB stator geometry template

Dedicated parametric template for printed circuit board stators — ideal for axial-flux machines and high-power-density applications.

Feature 4

AC winding loss calculations

A new high-fidelity winding loss model accounts for skin effect, proximity effect, and circulating currents — essential for accurate efficiency prediction at elevated frequencies.

Feature 5

Transient eddy current simulation in magnets, iron cores, and conductive parts

Time-domain eddy current modeling captures losses in permanent magnets, laminated cores, and solid conductors. Critical for high-speed machines and inverter-driven operation where harmonic losses dominate.

Feature 6

Advanced modeling of dynamic and asymmetric air gaps

Including double-rotor and double-stator configurations, with analysis of axial force behavior.

Feature 7

Automatic updates

MotorXP-AFM now checks for updates and notifies you when a new version is available. Enjoy bug fixes and new features without reinstalling the app.

Feature 8

Network licensing

Flexible floating license model for teams and enterprises. Centrally manage seats across your organization, reduce overhead, and enable shared access to MotorXP-AFM from any workstation on your network.
